Congratulations to the inaugural FAPAC Challenge Teams that have been selected for the 2013-2014 cycle. We received over 120 applications from 40 different agencies from across the United States. We are thrilled with the enthusiasm for the program and looking forward to a productive 6-month period with outstanding results to help serve the professional development of our team members while working to solve challenging issues facing the federal government when addressing the needs of Asian American and Pacific Islander communities. For those that were not selected, or unable to apply this time, we will welcome your applications next year. The Challenge Teams will convene in Washington on September 24 to begin their work. Challenge Team members will be receiving more information soon. For additional inquiries, please contact us at challenge@fapac.org.
